lyrics

I refuse to accept I'm getting older, but that gets a little harder every day. I can't throw a ball without feeling it in my shoulder, my bodies slowing down and I don't have a say.

Bud lays there in that nursing home bed. It was just last year that he was out cutting hay. His wife of 58 years has gone on before him, and he'll follow where she led the way.

I refuse to accept I'm getting older, though I see it all around me. Like a wandering confederate soldier, I just can't admit defeat.

My father has always been the man who could do anything, but in him I see the pain of age. Him and mom will always be my heroes, but just like they taught me, I know they'll see amazing grace.

The most beautiful woman I have ever known, now goes by my last name. She'll keep me young as we grow old together. If there was ever any doubt, she's why Jesus came, and why I

Refuse to accept I'm getting older, cause I just don't want to act my age. We'll never grow old, we'll just slow down, 'til our maker comes and we turn the final page.

And I refuse to accept I'm getting older, but this morning on my head I found some gray. And I don't want to live to wear out my shoulders, cause I want to wrap my arms around her every day.
